Conversion: fixed gear cyclocross from single speed cyclocross

Hi All, I'm new to the forum so just let me know if I'm in the wrong place or missing something.

I have a single speed cyclocross bike (Felt Breed) and I'm interested in being able to ride it as a fixed gear at times--probably just around town. Unless I'm missing some other crafty way to do the conversion, I think I need to get another rear wheel with a fixed gear hub. The challenge I'm running into is that all the wheels I find for sale with fixed or flip-flop hubs seem to be sized for track bike style 120mm dropout spacing, while my (aluminum) frame is 135mm MTB sized.

I suppose I could always get a wheel custom built (or learn to do it myself), but I'm trying to avoid that for now if possible.

Anyone know where I can by a wheel/hub setup that would fit and/or have other ideas for completing the conversion?

Thanks
